EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: I should have written it here too...

[IMPORTANT]
I can't post directly here the video tutorial nor the soft because it involves warez. If you are interested tell me by PM or just in this thread. Better yet if you write my nick while you do (@Xupito), it stands out more.

Like several of you may know, there's a plugin called inNKX for the file explorer-like "Total Commander" application. The main use is to pack individual .ncw files into .nkx ones.

CURRENT STATE

1. Total Commander with the inNKX plugin installed and configured. It's a no-install-symlink application.
2. Video-tutorial explaining the process. It's lame. It's provisional until I record a proper one. It seems Camtasia (screen recorder) doesn't recognize ASIO, so there's no sound
3. I will add subtitles to the video. I'll also make the tutorial in document format (.txt, .pdf) but at this time of the night typing tires me.

The only crucial things that doesn't show the video-tutorial is:

1. When in Total Commander, after selecting the samples folders, you have to press [Alt+F5] to show the pack to .nkx dialog.

I'll keep you posted. PM me for the links and don't post them here. I'll probably post them in AZ.

EMBEDDING WALLPAPERS INSIDE NICNT FILES LIKE A PRO

While playing with this cool new Kontakt library, Audio Imperia Jaeger, I decided to dig in another kind of files inNKX can create: nicnt. With the guide of a commercial one I was able to embed a wallpaper inside a manually created nicnt. This is the result:

Nothing revolutionary, but you feel like a pro...

[UPDATE] New video-tutorial and template file added: How to make nicnt files with embedded wallpapers

[UPDATE 2019-08-27] New possible project: https://audiosex.pro/threads/how-badly-would-you-like-an-app-to-automate-what-innkx-does.49880/ ]

[UPDATE 2019-07-31] I've extracted the cab IRs of Kontakt Guitars Shreddage 3 and Orange Tree Samples Dracus.

Hello...Try xupito

 

works gr8... w8ting for tut ;)

 

Title says
NICNT files with wallpaper embedded
It means that the wallpaper is inside the nicnt file, that's why you can't see it.

 

@Neck , I forgot, the password is:
xupito

Can't blame him/her, I'm mega clueless often...

I'm putting a poll, the hard part is to install inNKX with Total Commander

 

Many thanks...

 

Thank you very much, Xupito - do you have any more of these nicnt. files to share? I'm so frustrated that I have so many libraries without them...

 

There're threads here with nicnt's besides Wallpapers. And programs that make easy to create nicnt files. I recommend you Tracer's Nicnt generator. I'd recommend first focus on getting/making the nicnts, then the wallpapers.

Once you've this you can come here and learn how to put them together and other goodies of inNKX. First things first. ))

Edited: corrections typos and repackaged

Dont blame him/her either, just explaining, helping.

 

So I've been using the mini-NICNT tool, but it's not working with some libraries lately. I guess the newer the are the less likely it for the mini tool to work? Your nicnt worked nicely. Where do I get this generator you're talking about? I have a couple cinesamples libs that could use it.

 

That's the one I used before I found tracer's one. It should be in this forum or in AudioZ.
Also, Tracer has another nice Kontakt util that lets you manage the registry entries Kontakt and its libraries do.

 

This is very kind of you! Thank you Xupito

 

Please help me ! I've been searching a way to re-order library tabs without scrolling down forever ... Is there a way to edit manually this list in order to group libraries by type ?
By manually I mean without a specific software (I'm on mac)
thanks a lot

 

^ What does match your request in this topic Ted ?
Your question will be disregarded here. Unless you start a dedicated topic in the appropriate section…

Indeed, before you follow my suggestion, answer is simply: no way on mac.

Back on topic:

Looks like Total Commander can be run on Mac as well installing it in Crossover:
